Yeah, the idea of the appearance on Vue, Hulu and YoutubeTV is definitely not nothing. It might be next to nothing in terms of number of subscribers, but it's a game changer for sure. By comparison, the Pac 12 didn't land on any of those. They are available on Sling and Fubo, but only with the addition of sports packages that increase the price substantially. I think on Fubo, it costs like $65 to get the Pac 12 Network.

It says something, either about the content, or the power of ESPN, or something, that the ACC was able to land on three of those major players, as low as $45/mo for Hulu. Total different dynamic when it comes to waiting out the providers, that the PAC doesn't have.

Now, it doesn't matter if people don't end up switching, but it definitely relieves a lot of the pressure to cave to carriers, and will reduce some of the blowback from fans that the PAC has endured, with people almost literally not able to get it.
